DAY! Jam and Nlcodemas, tht new Wrth, John 1:1-17.
There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nlco
demus, a ruler of tht Jews:
Tht samt came to Jesus by night, and said unto
Him, Rabbi, wt know that Thou art a teacher come
from Ood: for no man can do these miracles that
Thou doest. except Ood be with Him.
Jesus answered ana said unto him. Verily. Ttrlly,
I aay unto thee. Except a man be born again, he
cannot set the kingdom of Ood.
Nlcodemut salth unto Him, How can a man be
born when ht la old? Can ha enter the second time
Into his mother's womb, and be born?
Jesus answered. Verily, verily. I say unto thee.
Except a man be born of water and of Spirit, he
cannot enter into the kingdom of Ood.
That which Is bora of the flesh Is flesh; and that
which la bora of the Spirit Is spirit.
Marrel not that I said unto the. Tt must bt
born again.
Tht wind blowrth where It listeth. and thou
bearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence
H cometh. and whither It goeth: to la every one
that Is bora of the Spirit.
Nlcodemus answered and said unto Him, How can
these things be?
. Jesus answered and said unto him. Art thou a
master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
Verily, verily, I say unto thee. We speak that wt
do know, and testify that wt hart seen; and yt
recelrt not our witness.
If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe
not. how shall ye believe. If I tell you of heavenly
things?
And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but He
that camt down lrom heaven, even the Son of man
which Is in heaven.
And as Moses lifted up the serpent In the wilder
ness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
That whosoever believe th In Him should not per
ish, but have eternal life.
For Ood so loved tht world, that Ht gave His
only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth In Him
should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For Ood sent not His Son Into the world to con
demn the world; but that tht world through Him
might bt saved.

Now If that were the whole

astonishing examples of barbarism and even sav

found not only In the Oriertf but In the West Indies.
I ran into some amazing examples of these spirit
doctors In Trinidad a few years ago. They operated
in secret In tht Jungle districts, because the police
were hunting them, but I managed to visit some of
them through the assistance of an Indian college
proieasor wno ceueved In them. .
These sadhus treat disease with Incantations. They
drive out evil spirit which art plaguing folk, and
they Invoke disaster against your enemy for a cash

Milk Pasteurization Does
Not Lower Nutrition Value
y EDWIN r. JORDAN. M. n
Milk Is one of the most vain.hi.
and widely used foods available to
-u. provides energy and con
tains some minerals and is rich In
car' ohydrates, fats and proteins.
Besides Its excellent nutritive
alue, milk can carry dlseast
germs. Oct ms relish milk, too, and
can grow In It with great speed.
The germs can get Into milk di
rectly from an Infected cow or may
drop In anywhere along Its path be
tween th cow and the consumer.
Infected milk has caused disease In
many people. The germ of tubercu
losis Is carried In milk. Typhoid
fever or brucellosis are also spread
by contaminated milk.
The spread of dlseast germs
through milk can be checked. The
way to do this Is simple and weU
known. It Is only necessary to use
process of treating milk with heat
which destroys the disease germs
which may bt present. This heat
treatment Is called pasteurization a
name which It received from the
great French pioneer m bacteriol
ogy, Louis Pasteur.
Cow Moat Be Healthy
Destroying germs by heating la
no excuse for supplying consumers
with dirty milk. The more healthy
the cows, the cleaner the collecting
methods, the transportation and the
bottling, the fewer the germs which
have to be destroyed by pasteuriza
tion. Great steps forward have been
made In getting cleaner milk.
Anyone who realizes the protec
tion which they and their families
have been given by pasteurization
of milk should feel that a great
step forward has been taken. To go
back to the old unprotected raw
milk would expose people to the un
necessary danger of catching dis
ease germs through milk which they
drink.
